Disclaimer / safe harbor statement

Certain statements in this presentation are forward-looking statements, which reflect the expectations of management regarding Azarga Uranium Corp. (“Azarga” or the “Company”)'s future operations. Forward-looking statements consist of statements that are not purely historical, including any statements regarding beliefs, plans, expectations or intentions regarding the future. Such statements may include, but are not limited to, statements with respect to the future financial or operating performance of the Company and its mineral projects, the estimation of mineral resources, the timing and amount of estimated future production and capital, operating and exploration expenditures. Such statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results, performance or developments to differ materially from those contained in the statements. No assurance can be given that any of the events anticipated by the forward-looking statements will occur or, if they do occur, what benefits the Company will obtain from them. These forward-looking statements reflect management's current views and are based on certain expectations, estimates and assumptions which may prove to be incorrect, including that permits required for the Company’s operations will be obtained in a timely basis, that skilled personnel and contractors will be available as the Company’s operations continue to grow, that the price of uranium will be at levels that render the Company’s mineral projects economic and that the Company will be able to continue raising the necessary capital to finance its operations and realize on mineral resource estimates. A number of risks and uncertainties could cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements, including: (1) a downturn in general economic conditions in North America and internationally; (2) the inherent uncertainties and speculative nature associated with uranium exploration; (3) a decreased demand for uranium; (4) any number of events or causes which may delay or cease exploration and development of the Company's property interests, such as environmental liabilities, weather, mechanical failures, safety concerns and labour problems; (5) the risk that the Company does not execute its business plan; (6) an inability to retain key employees; (7) an inability to finance operations and growth; (8) an inability to obtain all necessary environmental and regulatory approvals; (9) an increase in the number of competitors with larger resources; and (10) other factors beyond the Company's control. These forward-looking statements are made as of the date of this presentation and, except as required by applicable securities laws, the Company assumes no obligation to update these forward-looking statements, or to update the reasons why actual results differed from those projected in the forward-looking statements. Additional information about these and other assumptions, risks and uncertainties are set out in the "Risks and Uncertainties" section in the Company's MD&A filed with Canadian security regulators. Certain technical data in this presentation was taken from the technical report entitled “NI 43-101 Technical Report and Preliminary Economic Assessment for the Dewey-Burdock Project, Custer and Fall Counties, South Dakota” dated April 2012, prepared by Allan V. Moran, R.G., CPG of SRK Consulting, Frank A. Daviess, MAusIMM, and John I. Kyle, P.E. of Lyntek Incorporated (the “Technical Report and PEA”) and is subject to all of the assumptions, qualifications and procedures described therein. The Technical Report and PEA is preliminary in nature and includes inferred mineral resources that are considered too speculative in geologically to have the economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be categorized as mineral reserves. There is no certainty that the results of the Technical Report and PEA will be realized. Mr. Richard Clement is the Qualified Person who supervised the preparation of the exploration technical data in this presentation. This presentation shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy securities.

Uranium A positive outlook

Uranium spot price and analysts’ forecast

US$/lb

Source: TradeTech for historical spot. Analysts’ forecast is based on average of 17 analyst forecasts as shown in latest available reports (analysts include: BAML; BMO; Cantor; CIBC; CIMB; Comark; CS; Dundee; JPM; Raymond James; RBC; RFC Ambrian; Salman; Scotiabank; TD; and UBS).

§  2014 spot price range US$28-37/lb – A nine-year low

§  Price driven down by post-Fukushima demand withdrawal (black swan event)

§  Nuclear power is growing and will hit record in 2017 – 72 reactors under construction in BRICS, Middle East, USA and others)

§  Demand growth of 4-5% per year to 2020 is low-risk – Construction already commenced

§  Supply cut back in downturn – Kaylekera and Honeymoon shutdown, Areva and Cameco on growth moratoria

§  Supply deficit predicted 2017 to beyond the end of the decade

§  Mined supply +40% needed to address deficit by 2020 but current price levels don’t support any growth – Incentive price of US$80/lb+ required

Analysts’ forecast

Uranium The start of a big market inflection could be happening now

§  Fukushima impacted demand more than just the loss of Japan’s 23m lbs of annual demand – Non-Japan utilities cut purchases due to concern Japan’s 100m lbs inventory might hit the market

§  Demand was literally crushed – Observed uranium transactions dropped to average of c. 100m lbs for each of 2013 and 2014 YTD vs. typical levels of 200m lbs+ per year

§  Fuel buyers are now becoming more confident Japan will re-start – Sendai has received NRA approval and a favorable local district vote

§  China is looming larger (eg, purchase of 25% of Paladin’s Langer Heinrich Mine and contract to buy Uzbek uranium) – Commentary in China suggests additional nuclear construction approvals beyond what’s already forecast (ie, 68Gw vs 58Gw by 2020)

§  Severity of last two years downturn means miners will not close the supply deficit until beyond 2020

§  12 to 18-month cycle to convert U3O8 into nuclear fuel means utilities will be covering the deficit years needs in 2015 and 2016

§  Analysts may well be underestimating the speed and scale of the move up in price – In early 2006 when uranium was in mid-US$30s, analysts were projecting a move to US$50/lb in 2008 for a looming deficit… BUT by mid-2007, prices were already above US$130/lb!!!

Conventional vs. ISR grade and cash cost comparison using Cameco as a guide

7

Uranium Key to uranium investment is that grade is not king!... ISR mining amenability is!

§  In-situ recovery (ISR) has been the fastest growing source of uranium production – Now >48% of global total production

§  No movement of rock, no dust or tailings §  Solution is pumped into the ground and

returns to surface containing the dissolved uranium particles

§  Average global cash costs are c. 25% cheaper than non-ISR

§  Capital costs per lb of production around 65% cheaper

§  New projects in Athabasca can be high-grade but in general fail to achieve project economics of ISR in USA or Kazakhstan

§  Only sandstone hosted deposits with the right hydrological and geological conditions are amenable to ISR

þ   Highest grade Highest grade of projects in North American ISR focused companies

ISR mining In-situ recovery (ISR) is the preferred route for low cost uranium production – Now 48% of global uranium production

Low capex Initial capital expenditure of US$42.5m1 (approximately US$5/lb of U3O8 production)

Competitive operating costs

Total ‘all in’ operating cash costs of US$29/lb1 – below the midpoint for global primary uranium production

Phased ramp-up

§  Phased start-up of first well field over a three year period instead of one year period

§  Central processing plant delayed until the third year

§  Internal modeling suggests first three years capital expenditure can be significantly reduced

§  Lower initial capital expenditures could result a significant NPV enhancement

Vanadium recovery

§  Resource doesn’t include vanadium – not enough vanadium sampling completed - but assay results indicate that vanadium is present

§  Historical production at Edgemont averaged 1.5lbs vanadium per 1lb of uranium

TREC has been retained to update the PEA for Q4 2014

Dewey Burdock: Premier US ISR project Robust project economics mean project is feasible in a low uranium price environment

Mine §  Physical process (ie, no chemicals) so easier permitting §  Barren material remains on site and can be used as back fill enabling higher ore body

recoveries

Transport §  Approximately 90% reduction in transport costs §  Capital expenditure of onsite mill can be eliminated because it becomes economic to

transport product to third-party mills

Mill

§  Uranium output capacity automatically effectively increased because same volume of incoming material contains much more uranium

§  Faster recovery time using less consumables

§  No grinding required, saving electricity §  Approximately 90% less waste material reducing tailings storage and reclamation

Overall… why we call it a ‘game changer’

§  If we consider a theoretical sandstone hosted uranium project producing ore at 0.05% uranium (a fairly typical production grade) around 200km from a conventional uranium mill in USA, savings can be significant – transport costs would be reduced by US$10.17 per finished uranium pound and third-party milling could be reduced by US$3-7 per finished uranium pound

§  Overall cost savings of US$13-17/lb represent a huge impact when considering typical operating costs are currently US$30-40/lb

Potential to cut cash costs significantly by 35-50% on typical deposits amenable to the technology
